Styling Notes & Outfit Ideas

  • When it arrives: Try different tie adjustments to find your perfect fit. The high-waisted style is incredibly flattering once you find your ideal positioning.
  • For poolside lounging: Add cat-eye sunglasses and a wide-brimmed hat. The retro vibe calls for classic accessories.
  • When you wear it to beach cafes: Throw on high-waisted denim shorts over the bottoms. The gingham peeks through perfectly.
  • For family holidays: Pack a matching kimono or light cardigan. The print is sweet enough for multi-generational gatherings.
  • The smart move: Bring a strapless bra for the triangle top if you need extra support. The ties are adjustable but some prefer additional structure.

This earns its space by working for everything from family holidays to romantic getaways, with a timeless print that won't date in your holiday photos.

  • Full Coverage Bottom: Provides comfortable coverage without being conservative - strikes the perfect balance for family-friendly occasions
  • Colour-Fast Printing: The check pattern won't blur or fade quickly with chlorine exposure - maintains crisp lines season after season
